help Klipsch The Fives FAQ
Do I need a separate amplifier to use Klipsch The Fives?
No, Klipsch The Fives are active powered speakers, meaning they have built-in amplifiers tailored specifically for their components. You can connect them directly to sources like a turntable or TV without needing to purchase an external stereo receiver.
Can I connect my turntable directly to Klipsch The Fives?
Yes, The Fives include a built-in phono preamp on one of their analog inputs. This allows you to connect a standard turntable directly to the speakers via RCA cables, bypassing the need for an external phono stage.
What kind of TV connections do Klipsch The Fives support?
The speakers feature an HDMI ARC port, allowing for a single-cable connection to most modern smart TVs. This enables you to control the volume of the speakers using your standard TV remote.
How does the bass response of Klipsch The Fives compare to a soundbar?
Thanks to their 4.5-inch woofers and dedicated amplifier channels, The Fives typically produce a much richer, stereo-separated soundstage than a standard TV soundbar. While they won't hit sub-bass frequencies as hard as a system with a dedicated subwoofer, their mid-bass is surprisingly punchy for their size.
